The Two Gentlemen of Verona

Indifferently Reformed—The Asper Centre for Theatre & Film (U of W)

This group of over 9 U of W students and alumni clearly understood the assignment. Embracing the text of one of Shakespeare’s earliest works, David and Dryden as directors lead the cast and audience on embracing the quirky humour of the Bard’s comedy. Indifferently Reformed as a production company outfitted the stage with large sheets of fabric and through the use of shadow executed several scenes/tableaus to wonderfully layer this humorous production.

The cadence and performances were never once clunky, but evidently the ensemble not only is familiar with the text, but created a kaleidoscope through their mastery of the poet’s nuances and tongue and cheek references, all under the setting of a country club.
